Patterning surfaces with functional polymers. (2008, background): “Polymer solutions used for patterning should possess well-defined rheological properties, surface tension and solvent volatilit”
Viscoelasticity in inkjet printing (2010, background): “Some evidence of this can be seen in the original photographs of continuous jets by Goldin et al. (1969), and a detailed study was given by Christanti and Walker (2001) .”
Capillary Break-up Rheometry of Low-Viscosity Elastic Fluids (2005, background): “Analysis of jet break-up [18, 19] and drop pinchoff [20, 21] have also been proposed as a means of studying the transient extensional viscosity of dilute polymer solutions.”
The beads-on-string structure of viscoelastic threads (2003, methodology): “This is also seen in experimental observations of jet breakup (Christanti & Walker (2001)) and drop pinch-off (Cooper-White et al. (2002)).”
